[QUOTE="Ring, post: 1403093, member: 2952"] I have shot savages since the early 90's, ive had 2000$ custom savages, ive built them as well... accuracy is in the barrel, not the action... with the cost of savage actions, there is ZERO advantage to building a savage... [URL]http://northlandshooterssupply.com/actions/savage/[/URL] known savage issues... extractors blow, they drop brass back into the action trigger issues I've been shooting PRS type competitions for probably the last 12 to 15 years, and I can say almost without a doubt that there hasn't been a single competition I've been at that I haven't seen a malfunction caused by a Savage. And all of them directly related to The Savage action and triggers. The few times I've ever seen malfunctions in Remington's were usually magazine related issues not action related issues and the only trigger related issues I've ever seen were caused by people using Jewell Triggers which are notoriously unreliable in harsh conditions. the 700 cost me 1100 to build new action 370$ BHW rem-age Match barrel 325$ Magpul Chassis 280$ [IMG]https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/YaptHhXLbJrpwOVEoXRJphuexR7pq9-DnRPot9vQwXNAlv5nBr_bK-2YeqvbW-H4putahyd7x0tkNde_LVyplufCv7cmdmPRy8Tq9yCNvJ4wJEGYP2rlgLYIzaorUwDKRrNKaYxHNfLaBe5qOTFHNvuFUtoRDh57Z7odZjEYgMkTN8Lhh4J57Z6IJyamE4j2YMpM7WMHGvJPcaSjnHJ-6S-FBjsoensv9XlMw0i0_nuqJ9McNVaElyd7tO5XhiSyPXV9GAUlEoIFzDwwGBq5hVXZNQWFRkzomIjsSr4bP6HIvxZrDFy36evdzmUvHXODeL7OqQe2dx2fFhxuR0PJEkjR6fNzuOz50k_o-EO3ICZnOOCaAPgWzQN4quemRwvjSMIWDOBEyHIXtBU74GvJ7cyh6ZiRSYTNzJ7rxl6mD_TEhGeoTPAlJTyU94dht5P5NAGTDc_lXoUTuLgcVt_NgMp6p6geYwLNNrqKe8gPv0w0VH8mSzrlloaofz4Nb6ZP8_6RENZxXDj9RfXQaCNC1mSwr9Hg7CPUBoJ6SvFpG46LAfMe4GPMhfANo5SAOjCAz0ZUf-Wbrsy7vAXct4LO2T4PQDxraOjc80TLK2Z2=w1283-h949-no[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
